Open petition: Remove VAT from sunscreen and sunblock

Created by Peter Blackman
Closes on

Skin cancer is increasing in the UK, with around 3,800 deaths reported annually. We believe sunscreen and sunblock should not be subject to VAT due to being a cosmetic product, and should be fully exempted from VAT.
